If there’s something more painfully hipster than this Camper Bike, we’re yet to see it. We’re not sure whether owning this pedal-powered home would make you look; a) very cool, b) like a failing meth cook, or c) like some kind of human snail. Whichever it is, Ultimate Design Bricks is the builder of this whimsical contraption, and you can see more of his creation on MOCpages here, or on Flickr here.

OK, it’s not a Big Wheel, but this twice life-size tricycle by certified LEGO Professional Sean Kenney sure has a ‘Shining’ air to it.
Or it might just be that Stanley Kubrick’s cinematic masterpiece is so powerful that any red trike immediately conjures up images of elevators full of with blood, partying ghosts and madmen with axes. See more of this totally harmless tricycle (probably) at Sean’s MOCpage via the link above.
Captions are too mainstream
A while ago we posted Silvavasil’s Fixie Bike in a rare move away from our usual V8-powered fodder. He’s now returned with an updated version, which is sure to confuse the hell out of the hipsters that liked the first version so much. You see, the new bike has a thumping great rocket motor attached (very un-hipster), but… it sure isn’t mainstream.
Hipster Wheels
We’re a bit biased here at The Lego Car Blog. Most of our posts are towards the fast / thirsty / environmentally disastrous end of the vehicular scale. But not today. Today we redress the balance (albeit momentarily) with this beautiful Fixie Bike, uploaded to Flickr by Silvavasil.
So if you’re sitting in an independent coffee shop, sipping an alternative latte and reading this on your MacBook through thin glasses, this post is for you : )
And if you’re not, normal service will be resumed shortly.
The world's first extreme sport?
Penny Farthings, so named because of their wheel size ratio, are perilous things. It’s easier to get on a grumpy rhino than one of these. But that didn’t stop the thrill-seekers of Victorian England, and Mijasper hasn’t let the difficulty of building one in Lego stop him either. The master of ‘Nice Parts Usage’, check out this and his other superb works on Flickr.
